Stock Track | Tesla Plunges 5% Amid Valuation Concerns, Robotaxi Execution Risks, and New Autonomous Feature Probe

Stock Track01-08 04:32

Shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) plummeted by around 5.01% on Tuesday, January 7th, 2025, as the electric vehicle giant faced multiple headwinds weighing on investor sentiment.

Bank of America Securities downgraded Tesla's stock rating from "Buy" to "Neutral", citing the company's high valuation and potential execution risks surrounding its ambitious future initiatives. Analyst John Murphy raised the price target to $490 from $400 but warned that Tesla's current stock price already captures much of the long-term potential from its core automotive business, robotaxi service, Optimus robot project, and energy storage solutions.

One of the key concerns highlighted by Murphy was the mid-2025 launch of Tesla's highly anticipated robotaxi service, which accounts for around 50% of the company's valuation. Other potential roadblocks mentioned include the introduction of a low-cost model in the first half of 2025, a second new model in the second half, and the ramp-up of Megapack production at Tesla's Shanghai facility.

Adding to Tesla's woes, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced a new probe into approximately 2.6 million Tesla vehicles equipped with the "Actually Smart Summon" feature. The investigation follows reports of crashes involving this autonomous parking assistance feature, where Tesla vehicles allegedly failed to detect obstacles like posts or parked cars, resulting in collisions.

The NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation said it received one complaint and reviewed at least three media reports of such crashes, raising concerns about the safety and reliability of Tesla's advanced driver-assistance systems. The regulator also noted that Tesla did not report these incidents as required, further intensifying scrutiny around the company's autonomous driving technology.
